The first edition of 900 copies was released on November 10, 1981, on the band's original label [[Leathür Records]]. [[Elektra Records]] signed the band the following year, at which point the album was remixed and partially re-recorded. This re-release, with a different track listing and slightly different artwork (e.g., red lettering on the cover and a different interior photograph of the band), has become the standard version from which all later reissues derive. The re-recorded album also removed the song "Stick to Your Guns", though it is featured on a bonus track version of the album. The original mix of the album remained unreleased on CD until 2002, when it was included in the ''[[Music to Crash Your Car To: Vol. 1]]'' box set compilation. While the album only reached number 77 on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] album chart in the United States, it would ultimately reach [[music recording sales certification|platinum]] status. The songs "Stick to Your Guns" and "[[Live Wire (Mötley Crüe song)|Live Wire]]" were released as singles for the album. The cover is an homage to [[The Rolling Stones]]' 1971 album ''[[Sticky Fingers]]''.
